The selected Contractor will perform tasks requiring the application of established analysis methods, practices, and techniques. The work ranges from specific tasks to complex work for which guidelines and precedents are usually applicable, but interpretation and analysis may be required. Assignment characteristics include gathering, researching, verifying and analyzing facts; skilled use of Pro-Engineer/Creo major editing and mending techniques and use of CAD conversion tools and techniques for use in the ballistic vulnerability/lethality (V/L) analysis field. C. Offerors are strongly encouraged to review the attached PWS as it clearly details the requirements expected as a result of this award.
